INDIA MISSIONS TRIP 2026
INDIA MISSIONS TRIP APRIL 10-18
Calling all women 💕
Come experience the joy of pouring your heart into 25 of the most beautiful children you’ll ever meet!
These are our Mercy Tribe kids in the amazing village of Vallaru, India—where the love of Jesus is changing lives (including yours)! 🌍💖
This is a women’s missions trip to Vizag, India focused on outreach and loving our kids!
Mercy Tribe is now home to 25 children in India, and this trip is centered entirely around them! As we travel to Vizag, our itinerary will be about them! These are our kids we built a home for, send to school, pray for, and know by name! These are our kids, and we’re going to go be with them!
Throughout the trip, we will serve through children’s outreach and VBS, visiting leprosy colonies, street evangelism, and prayer — all with the heart of loving on people!
This trip is for women who are ready to step out of their comfort zone (and into the humidity), and see firsthand the impact being made overseas! I promise this will change your life, as it did mine, and is an oppurtunity you won’t want to miss!
